You must create a magazine ad for a brand of Shampoo. You must remember how to enter text in a Photoshop document and how to use Blending Options.  You can start saving on your desktop (in a Folder named Final Exercise) images of shampoo bottles, persons or children you may want to use (maybe with long hair), or any other images you think you may want to use the day of the Final Exam. Your ad must look very professional. You will save it in the server as FinalEx and you will print it for Mrs. Feld the day of the exam.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask Mrs. Feld.
